What is the energy of a photon (in units of h) that has a wavelength of 300 nm?
(c = 3.00 x 108 m/s)


1 x 10^17 h
1 x 10^15 h
1 x 10^6 h
1 x 10^-2 h

Answer:

[tex]Energy=1\times 10^{15}h\ J[/tex]

Explanation:

Considering:-

[tex]E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}[/tex]

Where,  

h is Planck's constant having value [tex]6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js[/tex]

c is the speed of light having value [tex]3\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength of the light

Given, Wavelength = 300 nm

Also, 1 m = [tex]10^{-9}[/tex] nm

So,  

Wavelength = [tex]300\times 10^{-9}[/tex] m

Applying in the equation as:-

[tex]E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]E=\frac{h\times 3\times 10^8}{300\times 10^{-9}}\ J[/tex]

[tex]Energy=1\times 10^{15}h\ J[/tex]
